The only time the soldiers cheered collectively in the 170-minute film was because after a victory the commander said he had requested a week's vacation for the entire company. It's like when your boss says to give you a week of paid vacation after you've been working overtime for months to complete a project, cheers!
When I watched this movie, I kept thinking about domestic movies and TV dramas about the Anti-Japanese War. Morality is above war. The Japanese are either stupid or perverted. Soldiers, throw their heads and blood and go forward bravely. When they encounter a bunker, their eyes must be bright and they are scrambling to become human bombs. You will never see "fear" and "fear". We had enough justice, yeah, the Japanese invaded our country; we had enough hatred, yeah, the Japanese bullied our sisters. However, we are missing one thing - humanity. All soldiers think in unison and act in unison. They are warriors and heroes produced in batches, but is this really the case? Eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, going to kill or be killed, don't you have any fear and withdrawal? I know there will definitely be people who will scold me: How could the soldiers of the people's children be afraid? Isn't little Japan just killing it?
I respect everyone who has given blood on the battlefield. I just think that it is not necessary for everyone to be tall and brave. Let's be real, and it's more worthy of our love!
If we jump out of this kind of nationalism, nationalism, and war, how can there be justice? But it is a dispute between different interest groups, and all the participants in the war are victims of politics.
Just like in this " The Thin Red Line", an American soldier looked at the corpse of the enemy and said, "Who has the power to decide the life and death of others?" The more intense the scene, the deeper and sadder the soundtrack. We should treat war with compassion. Hatred can only lead to new wars, and compassion can prevent more killings. Just like those American soldiers in the movie, they were on the battlefield and had to aim at the enemy, but when the enemy fell, their eyes showed deep sadness, not the ecstasy of annihilating the enemy, nor the pride of taking down the position. It's called human nature.
The 170-minute movie, switching back and forth between the brutal war and the beautiful scenery, before the gunshots rang out, you would think it was a National Geographic propaganda film, such a beautiful island, sea water, rolling peaks, secluded jungle, And the most filthy invention of mankind, war, happened in such a place, with a strong contrast and a strong impact.
That's right, this is an anti-war war film, against all wars launched in the name of justice, against all hatred education, against all killings that go against human nature, because once the war starts, there is no so-called victory. Can the political interests exchanged for a fresh life be called a victory?
